The artwork on the arched windows of Hull Paragon station’s entrance is inspired by the "Transmigration" phenomenon in Hull. Between 1848 and 1914, more than 2 million people arrived into the city by ship from mainland Europe, and left by train for the ports of Liverpool and Southampton. They were on their way to take ships to a new life, particularly in the United States of America. This mass movement of people through and across Hull, many staying in the city only for a few hours, ended abruptly with the outbreak of WW1. The designs on the windows explore the notion that skills migrate along the transport routes, as well as people, their hopes and expectations. Many of the migrants used traditional baskets to take their belongings on their journey, and there are a number of basket weaving patterns and skills now present in North America that can be traced back to northern Europe. The images also make reference to other elements that interweave with this history – the materials that make the baskets, the plants and seeds that also migrate along the train tracks, and the final destination of the people who passed through the station during that time. The site of the artwork is a place where the constant moving of people today mirrors the weaving process which creates textiles and baskets – the action of layers crossing over layers, creating new patterns every time people enter and exit the building.
